Reflections on Kylie's Birth family.....

I type this and reflect on our Kylie turning 5 yesterday but today the day after is always a bit bittersweet for me. It is the day we were told she was abandoned at the SWI. I am always a bit sad today as I think of her birthmother and family in China making the heart wrenching decision to abandoned our beautiful daughter at the gates of the SWI. Birthdays are suppose to be celebratory but I always reflect on the day after more then on her BIRTHday......Can we even imagine what our Dear daughter's China families went thru to give us our beautiful children? I will always be SO grateful to have been given such a beautiful little girl for whose birthparents brought her into this world so that her Momma and Daddy in Montana could love her and make her the person she is suppose to be.

(Well we're at least trying as hard as we can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Oh well just typing out loud here.

Way too much time thinking on my couch I guess.

Off to find my beautiful new FIVE year old and tell her how much I love her!

LOVE Kylie's momma FOREVER!

Oh to be a kid again..... Yum-O!

And on this day......

Our "baby" turns the Big 5!

AKA One whole hand old!

Where does the time go?

We LOVE you Pookie!

Tomorrow is ANOTHER BIG day!!!!

Miss Kylie Mei is turning.......

Update.....Knee surgery went GREAT! Am surviving life on the couch tho' I'm bored out of my mine! Daytime TV is ridiculous. But I can hobble around the house without crutches and haven't had any major pain meds since Sunday! So now to get the quad muscle working again aka bending and I'll be good to go. But my knee modelling days are long gone for sure! As if they were even here? Who am I kidding :-) THANK YOU all for your notes and encouragement!

Tomorrow is the BIG day!!!!

Yes, Friday is the BIG day that I become BIONIC.....Well not quite as BIONIC as this picture but you get the idea! A new knee cap and surgery is what I have scheduled. So send me all the good vibes you have even if you're reading this way after cuz' recovery could be real FUN-NOT?!!!! 4-6 weeks on crutches need I say more? So my goal in recovery is to be ready for our Las Vegas trip the end of November. So bring on those good drugs and fix my knee so there is NO more pain!

Till I write again.......

R.I.P.

I just wanted to let know that today is a sad day at the Munsingers as our special little dog Willie got out of our backyard and was hit by a car. So he is now free to run and bark up a storm up in heaven. He was 8 years old. He was a registered Pekingese AKA William Tells It ALL who we adopted in 2001. Such a short life in dog years but he was sure LOVED.
